Hi!

I'm searching for a forex broker which offers a mini lot account and the ninja trader platform!

Because i would like to trade on multiple-tick charts which is not possible on mt4.

Thanks for reply!

If you check the list of partners on the NT website you will find all you need to know.

Off the top of my head, compatible brokers include: MBTrading, Forex.com/Gain and PBGST. This is not exhaustive, just off the top of my head.

Thanks a lot!

I'll check that out!

One peoblem with the page of nt is that there are brokers listed like active trades. They offer nt just for futures trading not for forex.

The problem is that most of the brokers do not offer ninja for fx trading. Only for fx futures or options. They are listed at the ninjatrader web site but i have not found any broker that offers NT for a fx account.

Is someone trading fx with NT?

You can use NT to trade fx mini account with forex.com (Gain). For the most up to date and complete list of brokers, you could also give NT a call or use the online chat.

I amn interested in that!
I thought no one trades futures here on ff! Is it different in gaping?

In leveraged trading i am always affraid of gaps, that causes big loss!

Hello

I use ninja exclusively and love it, I trade futures and I would recommend MBT but if you go to the list of brokers here is the link.

Also I have started a journal on my euro futures trades so check it out,it is called my Euro future trading journal and I have videos on my blog if you want to check the platform out live.

Tick chart are so powerful, time chart are not even in the same league. I use 610 for trend and 89 tick for trading.

Thanks a lot!
It seems commen sense to me that these charst are clearer. Because I thought they are showing the real action that happens in the market!
But I was not sure if they realy give an edge! So thanks a lot.

I will check your journal!

Good luck and happy trading!

They give you a clearer view of volume, a 5 minute chart produces a candle every 5 minutes no matter what.A 233 tick requires 233 orders to be filled for the candle to form. If you look at an s&p 500 chart some days there 12 candles per minute or more so lots of candles for the day others days the total candles are way less therefore less market action. Do some testing and you will see what I mean

Hi Darren, This is my first post, but I am not new to futures and forex. I have tried MBT and have found their data a bit different from the
CME during news events, so are you sure this is a good data to trade on for futures? I found that the Rithmic data is much better for futures.
I have tested the data through a broker I am not familiar with www.tradersplatform.com
However, the FX on MBT was pretty good. How would one go about having different feeds for different instrument? I assume you would need the multi broker license?
Maybe it is best to go via IB because their API does futures and forex, so you get to save on the key for one broker.
Thoughts?

Thanks,

Camino

You have replied to an old thread friend,

This question may e better answered in the Ninja users forum.

It is best, IMHO, to use a premium data provider for your data, and trade on that data with a Ninja compatible broker.

Brokers like MB Trading and IB provide data for free as a service to their brokerage customers, and many can and do use that free data for their needs. Such broker supplied data has its various limitations however.

For the fastest, cleanest etc data, if one's account size makes it economical, best practice would be to buy premium data from a data provider that has data as it primary business line.... and use a secondary connection in Ninja to the broker for placing trades.

@crassius. Thank you.
When I replied I have realized how old the thread was...
but, I think what I have found might be of inetrest to many futures traders or potential traders:

MB Data and IB data are free, as you mentioned, but they dont provide accurate tick data in real time.
Ninja sells an additional package called Kinetick, but it is a whitelabel of DTN/IQ or at the very least some
sort of a similar type data which runs at about $50/Month. In order to receive this data, you need to have
a trading account because only then you get a CME waiver for the reduced fee of $50/month.
I am trying out a DTN/IQ 30 day data, but so far I see zero diffeences as far as tick data with Rithmic.
I assume that DTN is a good comparison because it does provide tick for tick as far as the exchange.

In conclusin of my rambling here, there are brokers who provide unfiltered and accurate data
without paying additional fees. I spoke to NinjaTrader today and they did confirm that
if you want the best of both worlds, an FX and Futures seperatly, you would need the multiple broker license.

I'm a ninja trader user with a Kinetick data feed. For FX trading I use a NT / MT4 bridge from littlefishfx .. that gives me the flexibility to execute my trades with any MT4 broker. I have a multibroker licens for NT but this will also work with the free version

U can get a trial on official site that was give before, but there is not much difference with MT concerning technical instruments. To trade via ninja u need to trade futures, which is much more expensive. I try to trade different instruments in HY markets, they give opportunity to give stocks futures etc, but still, currencies with a leverage are the chiepest instrument today, therefore futures on indexes are much more volative, so choice is always yours

FXCM offers mini lot (10k) and micro lot (1k) trading on the NinjaTrader platform. Additionally, qualified users can receive a free software license.

In order to get NinjaTrader for free, open an FXCM account with $5000 or more, and trade at least 500k per month in round turn notional volume. If you already have a single broker NinjaTrader license and simply want to add FXCM, contact us at [email protected] for special instructions.
